Parc de la Gatineau

Pink lake was absolutely beautiful- slightly populated but everyone kept their distance. Love all the stairs and watching the fish in the water! The parking lot is closed but we found another route in- highly recommended looking at the trail system map before going and having a “back up plan”

Excellent park for all year around hiking, biking and enjoying nature. Lots and lots of trails to explore. There are may view points that can be accessed via car. Park is quite large with many access points so it's advisable to plan your trip with your interest in mind. There are restaurants near visitor centers. Parking can be issue during peak seasons.

Beautiful park but unfortunately I didn’t get to see the whole thing as it is very big. It sure is a nice place to escape from the hustle and bustle of Ottawa.

First timer as an Ottawa native. Not sure why I never went before. Beautiful area with fall colors at their finest. Seems like a popular place too, lots of traffic, hikers, bikers! Will definitely look into Gatineau Park more and see what else it has to offer!

Wonderful park to explore and take some fresh air outside. It was also fun to walk the dog here.

Wonderful park to explore the views and get some fresh air excercise. Many different activities for people of all ages during all seasons.Especially great to take in the fall colours, make sure to check for potential road closures beforehand. The Gatineau parkway was closed on our visit making Pink lake difficult to access.

Good place for day out, trails, activities at camp fortune, good lakes and greenery.

Amazing place for walking, hiking, biking and exploring. There are free shuttles in the weekends during the summer and the fall from Ottawa area! Which is so cool for people without cars. I visited here in first week of october 2022 using the shuttle. Had a great view from the Champlain point and a good hike to Lac Meech. The place is really beautiful during the autumn. There are lot of places around to explore. The place is so vast that everything can't be covered in one day. There are lots of parking spots close to various viewpoints/ trails and also washroom accessibility. It is recommended to carry some food and water. There aren't any food kiosks inside.You can either drive very close to the viewpoints or take a hike along the trails if you are feeling adventurous. It is definitely a must visit and multiple visit-worthy place if you are around the Ottawa-Gatineau area.

Really loved visiting the park. Open from 12 PM. Lot of spots in between the routes. Trials, estates, look-out spots, lakes, etc. It's worth spending a few hours over there. It's perfect in summer and fall. A few minutes drive from ottawa downtown. You can get the bus service from the starting point through the park. Pink lake and lookout spots were my favorite. I have noticed many people cycling along the path. Its a perfect spot for them too.

Gatineau Park is a fantastic place to spend your weekend. It's incredibly beautiful and peaceful, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
